Postlude

Come and behold the work of the Lord, the awesome acts of God.

He is in the midst of His people, in all the earth.

He is the Word, we are His hands, He will lead us.

He is the air, we are His song,

We will celebrate His presence all the day long.

Rev. Mat Alexander, Pastor

¡°Rock of Ages, Cleft for Me¡±

Reading from the Scriptures

God is our refuge and strength; a present help in time of trouble.

Though the mountains shake in the heart of the sea,

Though the waters roar and foam, we will not fear.

Mrs. Lana Cornutt

Come and behold the work of the Lord, the awesome acts of God.

He is in the midst of His people, in all the earth

He is the rain, we are the stones, He will cleanse us.

He is the air, we are His song,

We will celebrate His presence all the day long.
